NAME
       transset - Set transparency on a window

SYNOPSIS
       transset [-options ...] [opacity]

DESCRIPTION
       transset  is  a  simple program for X servers supporting the XFIXES, DAMAGE, and COMPOSITE extensions.  It lets the user set
       the transparency on a window.

       The opacity value is a number from 0 to 1, with zero being fully transparent and 1 being fully opaque.  If no opacity  argu‐
       ment  is given, a default value of 0.75 is used for the opacity value.  If neither --inc nor --dec are given, the opacity is
       treated as an absolute value and set to the given opacity value.  If --inc or  --dec  is  specified,  then  the  opacity  is
       treated as a relative value to increase or decrease the current opacity by.

OPTIONS
       -display display
               This option specifies the server to use; see X(7).

       -h, --help
               This option displays a help message and exits.

       -t, --toggle
               This option forces a toggle of opacity.  If the current opacity is not set to fully opaque (opacity 1.0), it will be
               reset to fully opaque.  If the window is already fully opaque, the opacity will be set normally.

       -c, --click
               This option selects the target window by waiting for the user to click the mouse -  the  topmost  window  under  the
               mouse cursor when the mouse click occurs will be used as the target.

       -p, --point
               This option selects the window currently under the cursor to be the target.

       -a, --actual
               This option selects the window that currently has input focus to be the target.

       -n, --name name
               This  option  selects the target window by name, where name is matched as a regular expression, unless --no-regex is
               also specified.

       --no-regex
               This option disables treating the name argument to --name as a regular expression.

       -i, --id
               This option selects the target window by window id.

       --inc   This option increases the window opacity by the given opacity argument.

       --dec   This option decreases the window opacity by the given opacity argument.

       -m, --min opacity
               This option sets the minimum possible opacity value.  It defaults to 0 if this option is not given.

       -x, --max opacity
               This option sets the maximum possible opacity value.  It defaults to 1 if this option is not given.

       -v, --verbose
               This option prints some additional debug info as the program operates.

       -V, --version
               This option prints the program version number and exits.
